New York Times Writer in Flap Over Tech Biggie

Mediaite: New York Times reporter Taylor Lorenz locked her account on Twitter after falsely claiming that tech entrepreneur Marc Andreessen used a “slur” during a private chat online. “@PMarca just openly using the r-slur on Clubhouse tonight and not one other person in the room called him on it or saying anything,” Lorenz wrote in a Saturday message on Twitter, referencing a private discussion on the invite-only “Clubroom” application in which Andreessen addressed the controversy over GameStop.
